Butter Chicken
AED 58Tandoor-roasted chicken simmered in our six-hour tomato & cashew gravy, finished with fresh cream and kasuri methi.
A family kitchen, a tandoor that's been burning for sixteen years, and recipes carried from Lucknow to Old Karama. Come hungry — leave family.
In 2008, Vikram Sharma left a hotel kitchen in Lucknow and opened a 24-seat dining room in Karama with his mother's recipe book, a battered copper pot, and a tandoor that hasn't been switched off since. The neighbourhood took to it quickly. Today, three generations of the Sharma family run the floor, the kitchen, and the spice room behind it.
Every masala is ground in-house each morning. The dough for our naans is hand-slapped to order. The butter chicken simmers for six hours before it ever reaches a plate. Nothing here is fast — and that's exactly the point.
From Mughlai feasts to a quiet weekday dal, from a first date to a fiftieth anniversary — for sixteen years, Karama has trusted us with its tables. We don't take that lightly.
Weekends fill up by Thursday — book a few days ahead for parties of four or more. We hold tables for 15 minutes after your slot.
